MONTREAL – Feb. 25, 2026 – Clientis Inc., one of RDÉE Prince Edward Island’s long-standing partners, has just renewed its Gold-level sponsorship of the 2026 Acadian Entrepreneurs’ Gala for a fifth consecutive year. The Acadian and Francophone Chamber of Commerce of PEI, which organizes the event in collaboration with the RDÉE, couldn’t be happier with this continuing partnership.

Clientis is the Quebec agency that helps coordinate the RDÉE’s sales missions in Quebec, organizes sales meetings for the Island businesses on the mission and provides them with sales training. In exchange for this sponsorship, the agency will have the privilege of presenting certificates to the finalists for the 2026 Distinguished Employee Award:

• Alain Arsenault, sawmill team leader and truck driver at Arsenault Sawmill (2016) Ltd., St-Chrysostome;
• Alison Jenkins, project manager at Actions Femmes ÎPÉ, Summerside;
• Louis Gallant, hardware manager at Wellington Service Station Ltd., Wellington.

At the Gala, Robert Maddix, who coordinates RDÉE’s missions, will represent Clientis since the Longueuil, Quebec-based company will not be able to attend. CCAFLIPE and RDÉE greatly appreciate this sponsorship, which will help cover the costs of their biggest entrepreneurial recognition event of the year.

The Gala, now in its 24th year, will take place on Saturday, March 21, at 5:30 p.m. at the Village musical acadien in Abram-Village. Six entrepreneurial awards will be presented, and four entrepreneurs/businesspeople will be inducted into the Acadian and Francophone Business Hall of Fame. Tickets ($50, tax included) are on sale at the Wellington Rural Action Centre until Friday, March 13, either in person, by email at marthe@rdeeipe.org, or by phone at 902-854-3439. Payment can be made by e-transfer, credit card, or cash.
